“We were very impressed with the setup on site.”

We had terrible weather on our weekend which resulted in power cuts. The response to fix our internet was speedy. The barn had exceptional facilities - really top end. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

“Here are some comments from my fellow guests.”

I thought the Walnut Barn accommodation was excellent apart from the lack of toilet rolls (we had to ask for extra rolls which they supplied). It would be good to mention that occupancy of 8 plus would benefit from a 4 slice toaster. Arrival: On arrival the team were very helpful with assisting with enquiries. During the stay: We found that the single beds were too small, width wise. It is suggested that a second key be made available, but only one supplied. A toaster that can toast 4 slices. Departure. The team did not pressure us to leave, allowing some flexibility. Again the team assisted us with any enquires that we may have had. All in All very good with some minor niggles.

- Mr Lawer, October 2019

Thank you for your feedback. I have passed on your comments for the owner to action asap with regards to your request for a larger toaster to be provided at the barn, more toilet rolls and an extra key to be available on request - by prior arrangement with the owner. Sykes owner relations
Mrs King September 2019

“This was a perfect location in the middle of nowhere and so quiet.”

The only problem with that is when calling an ambulance as we had to they could not find us waited 4 hours. The toilets are far to low for disabled persons and the beds are too high, we had problems with both getting 2 elderly ladies on and off the toilet and into bed. The showers were hard to regulate and the water was so hot we were nearly scolded trying to regulate them.

“We stayed in Walnut Barn during a few days of lovely sunny weather in mid- May 2019.”

The Barn was very comfortable and despite having 7 full grown adults living in there the place NEVER felt crowded. There was so much room to do your own thing if required. Superb location. Only 15 mins to any of the regions' attractions ( and the chip shop ! ) on country roads that were never clogged with traffic. Three things that were mentioned though. *1. Some of our friends said that the place was too warm/hot during the night. But thats a personal thing, in fact, I put an extra duvet on my bed to ensure that I kept warm! *2. We did feel that the kitchen could do with a clock installed! Every kitchen has a clock, surely. And in this instance there would be SEVEN pairs of eyes making use of it. *3. Oh PLEASE !!!!! Put a riser-rail and shower curtain in the bathroom with the only a bath. The tap HAS a shower attachment, but there isn't a riser rail to hang it on and no curtain to keep everywhere tidy. The bath did fill very quickly with scolding hot water which was superb! Wish my boiler at home worked as well as yours does! :-)

- Mrs Elliott,
Atkinson

“The barn was well equipped and spotlessly clean .”

It was a advantage to have a bathroom to each bedroom. This cottage was chosen as 4 bedrooms were required and was well suited to our needs. Your website was very easy to use and I need that as I cannot use the telephone as I am deaf.\ \ There is a lot to do in the area and we particularly liked Chastleton House and Snowshill Manor (both NT) For pubs we liked The Plough at Cold Aston and the Hollow Bottom both having good friendly service and good food at reasonable prices. Bourton on the water is nice but ruined by to many tourists. Lower Slaughter is worth a visit and has a nice tearoom at the Old Mill.\

Great location and nice to be remote yet so close to Bourton on the Water. We had great fun visiting the alpacas and donkeys. Staff we helpful and the games room brilliantly stocked. Couldn't have asked for more.

The property

A truly unique self catering experience awaits at this stunning contemporary barn creation, set within the gorgeous Cotswolds hills.

Walnut Barn is one of four large barns set on the edge of the Notgrove Manor Estate Farm all of which are awash with sunlight, space and excellent quality accommodation.

Walnut Barn is the largest (just!) with an extra Living Room on top of all the creature comforts found at each of the Notgrove properties.

The property is all located on the ground floor with everywhere very 'roomy' and spacious.

The open plan Living Room area is a particular feature, but equally the second Living Room with its wood burning stove allows for a cosy hideaway if required.

Four bedrooms with four bathrooms give this a real Five Star appeal, on top of which you've got a games room too - pool table, table tennis you name it!

If you've come from an urban environment then this is heaven!

About the location

BOURTON-ON-THE-WATER

Stow-on-the-Wold 4 miles; Moreton-in-Marsh 8 miles; Chipping Norton 13 miles; Cheltenham 15.5 miles.

Located in the Cotswold Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, the historic village of Bourton-on-the-Water dates back to Neolithic times with over 100 buildings being Grade II listed or higher. The picturesque high street nestles alongside the River Windrush over which several low stone bridges span, which is why Bourton-on-the-Water is known as the Venice in the Cotswolds. Tradition states that an annual football match is played in the summer, in the River Windrush with the banks lined with spectators, with the aim to score as many goals as possible and get as wet as possible! The village has an eclectic range of visitor attractions, including The Model Village, Cotswold Motor Museum, Birdland Park and Gardens as well as a Dragonfly Maze, monthly farmers’ market as well as many tea rooms, an artisan bakery, antiques and craft markets, traditional sweet shop, cycle hire and its very own perfumery. Nearby, Stow-on-the-Wold, originally an Iron Age Fort, epitomises traditional England. This ancient market town has played host to many fairs since the 12th century and today holds a biannual Gypsy Horse Fair, craft fairs and monthly farmers' market. The vast market square boasts an ancient cross at one end and the village stocks at the other, surrounded by an elegant array of Cotswold stone townhouses, antiques shops, tea rooms, traditional pubs, award-winning restaurants and its very own cricket museum. Also take a visit to the medieval town of Burford for a great day out. The Saxon market town of Moreton-in-Marsh and the quintessential English village of Broadway are both within easy reach and make a great day out. The spa town of Cheltenham is, architecturally, the most complete Regency town in England with an incredible range of shops, cinemas, theatres, restaurants and pubs, it is famous for its horse racing festival in March, culminating in the Gold Cup steeplechase. Oxford, the oldest university city in England and sometimes called The City of Dreaming Spires has an abundance of prestigious attractions, including the 38 colleges of the university (half of which date back before 1600), the oldest university teaching room, the Bodleian Library, Ashmolean and Pitt Rivers Museums, and Botanic Gardens. Stratford-upon-Avon, Bath, Worcester and the waterfront city of Gloucester are also all within easy reach.
